can a boy and girl be friends really? Or it is that one of them likes the other or such feelings develop after friendship?

It depends on their instant feeling. There are few people who had developed their friendship to being a partner. Well for me it is a good start fo long lasting relationship. There is nothing wrong on feeling inlove withe your friend.

I used to believe in this kind of friendship:( I mean, when you have male friends it's ok to have no special simpaty with one of them. But when you have a best male friend... well... probably the feeling is not so sincere:D or the boy is gay (my best friend is gay and is the best friend I had in life*_*) I talk like that because both of my best male hetero friends tried to kiss me _ so I don't trust them no more _

This question is a bit tricky one. Whenever a boy and girl are in love they tend to be each other's best friend. I do think that a boy and a girl can become become good friend. But at times these feeling transform into something called love.

There is always a feeling of attraction between a boy and a girl and its natural.But the attraction can be in form of love or a friend.A girl and boy can be friends but if bonding increases beyond certain level then it converts into love.Love at first site is just physical attraction which may or may not last.But love after friendship is emotional attachment.it is upto boy and girl to control their feelings and just be friends.Care ,Share and be best friends.

No. There is no such thing as a platonic relationship. Humans are creatures with emotions.. Over time, anything can develop. The only thing to prevent all these from happening, is self-discipline. goodluck!

i honestly think that they can be just friends. i'm a girl who doesnt have any female friends. all of my friends are male, and i've seen them all as my brothers and i know for a fact they have too. i think sometimes when you know someone well, and trust someone and just plainly enjoy ones company its easy to develop feelings for the person. i'm not going to lie about that because i know i've felt that inkling before with my friends but its usually brief with me. i know that we're too alike in some areas and waaay too different in others for a romantic relationship to work. we balance each other out and thats why we work so well. its different with all people though, you do have to remember that. sometimes people wont sacrifice such a good relationship for a romantic one that might not last and would be difficult if not impossible to get back to.

hi!!Yes,a boy and girl can definitly be great friends.Friendship is all about trust,care and the feeling of,'i know my friend is there".Its far above gender.I have a guy friend who is a great pal to me from my childhood.We have never thought of anything else.So,i believe,keep things friendly and the friendship continues.
